IMPROVEMENT m WAGON BODIES.

TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:

Be it known that. I, J. H. ALDRICH, of Nashua, county of Hillsborough, State of- New Hampshire, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Cart or Wagon Bodies. The following is a correct description thereof, with reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and letters marked thereon, making a part of this specification.

The novelty of my invention consists in the fio and at the same time the wheels may project above said floor.

Figure 1 is a plan, and

Figure 2 a side elevation. o In fig. 1, letters a. a are sills placed outside the wheels, and are supported by sills at right angles, which extend out forward and back of said whc'els. .B B are caps which enclose the wheels from the load. When this improvement is applied to a four-wheeled carriage the position of said caps B B, as shown in fig. 2, are easily changed by means of screw-bolts which firmly secure them in place. By this arrangement bulky loads may be broad and low, and less liable to accident. I

I am aware of the various modes by which leads are widened after getting above the wheel, all of which I disclaim.

What I claim as my invention, The arrangement and combination 0 or extending around all of the wheels upon the same level, I will describe its construction and operation.

and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- f .said sill A with cap B, for the purpose herein described.
